Var is a department of southeastern France. Var was formed in 1790 of a part of Lower Provence, but in 1860 it was reduced by the transfer of the district of Grasse to the newly formed department of the Alpes-Maritimes, which is why the Var River does not now flow in the department to which it gives its name. The Var is also famous for its wine production.
